Coxsackievirus B-3 myocarditis in Balb/c mice. Evidence for autoimmunity to myocyte antigens

SA Huber and PA Lodge

Male Balb/c mice inoculated with a heart-adapted variant of Coxsackievirus, group B, type 3 (Nancy) (CVB3M), develop extensive myocarditis and cytolytic activity to primary cultures of uninfected and infected myocytes. To elucidate the mechanisms of myocyte injury in myocarditis, two distinct cytolytic T-lymphocyte (CTL) populations were isolated by immunoadsorption of lymph node cells to glutaraldehyde- fixed uninfected and infected myocyte monolayers. One population preferentially adsorbed to and lysed uninfected myocytes (autoreactive CTLs), while the other adsorbed to and lysed CVB3M-infected myocytes (virus-specific CTL). Neither CTL population adsorbed to monolayers of HeLa, L929, or umbilical cord endothelial cells, or to myocytes infected with a related but nonmyocarditic Coxsackievirus B-3 variant ( CVB3o ). While both autoreactive and virus-specific CTLs induced myocarditis in vivo, the lesions caused by autoreactive CTLs were more extensive and necrotizing than those of virus-specific cells. These results support the hypothesis that CVB3 -induced myocarditis results, in part, from autoimmunity to myocyte antigens.
